Re: Revenge Pack DeLuxe issues

Why not? This is the best game ever dude! There's nothing wrong with the game if you speak Hungarian I guess... This stuff must be preserved before it completely disappears off the face of the earth. This is a very rare version of the game, so this would save some time for those who wants to play …

Re: Boss key (boss button)

in Milliways
I remember Ész-kerék had one. It's a Hungarian Wheel of the Fortune clone. But unfortunately seems like the game is buggy and the boss key only works in Hercules, CGA, Tandy and PCjr modes. EGA/VGA modes are messed up unfortunately. Thought it's a DOSBox bug, but it turned out it's just a glitchy …

Re: Boss key in Ész-kerék crashes DOSBox

Yup, Hercules works just fine as I mentioned. That works just as intended. Also CGA, Tandy and PCjr seems to be ok. Tried VMware Player, Virtual PC 2007 and PCem and I got the same effect. I'm not sure if that's the same thing on a real machine, but I have the feeling that this is a buggy game. By …

Boss key in Ész-kerék crashes DOSBox

While I was looking MS-DOS games with boss key for the topic posted by sledge I remembered one from the past and wanted to show him but for some reason I found a bug in DOSBox. The game should be Ész-kerék by Babi-Szoft or Babinszki Zoltán, a DOS game inspired by a Hungarian TV quiz show called …

Re: Beginner Having Trouble...

There are two options. The first one is the easiest and the other one is a bit more complicated. You can buy SimCity 2000 Special Edition from gog.com and you don't have to mess around with anything if you don't own the game and you got a pirated copy. Currently is on sale for $2.39 and you got 16 …

Re: IPF support

I'm pretty much confident that this will not happen until the guys at Software Preservation Society don't make up their minds. Clearly their license is just a really bad choice. Also I have a mixed feeling abut the .IPF format. In theory it's awesome for preservation, however the downside is that …

Re: Syndicate install error

If you are trying to install the game from drive C:\ or A:\ without -t floppy you will get this. No useful information in the reference card, so other solution is needed. Error during installation. You must be logged to the floppy drive. Please consult your reference card for details. The game can't …

Re: Planning to Build a New Computer - Want Some Advice

in Milliways
If you are looking at the non GEN3 version of that board and the BIOS update change logs you will see 10 entries there, most of them improving system stability. So it should be "Rock solid, Heart touching" just as their slogan used to be. The GEN3 R2.0 board should have almost the same stability as …

Re: Skunny's Desert Raid sound crash

Running loadfix twice is equivalent to running it once as "loadfix -128". Well, there's actually a small difference due to environment memory blocks, but if the issue is sensitive to such fine-grained changes in load address then you probably don't need large allocations, anyway. While I was …

Re: Planning to Build a New Computer - Want Some Advice

in Milliways
Every single time the question is the same. How much money do you want to spend, and what will you use it for. I guess it would be for editing ADG episodes and some serious gaming, so picking the right components is essential. So here are some of my recommendations. For the case I would get one from …

Re: Skunny's Desert Raid sound crash

I can confirm both the issues you have and found the solution finally while I was messing around with various settings. Both 0.74 and SVN doesn't really like this game unfortunately. Here's what I found out so far. When you install the game the effects are defaulted to beeper, so you need to change …

Re: Silent Hunter 1 on DOSBOX: Not working

Can't confirm any of the issues mentioned in this topic. I got it to work on the first try, with the default DOSBox config file. Tried installing from the CD and the CloneCD dumped image I just made from the retail disk. Just imgmount -ed the .CUE sheet installed the game and it ran flawlessly. …

Re: Installing TIE Fighter Through DOSBox

If you have lost your copy maybe you should look for one, because the game should be copy protected. The game will ask for the CD if you run the game. And first thing is to stop following that tutorial because it doesn't mentions how to install it. Can't confirm any of your issues, because I tried …

Re: Revenge Pack DeLuxe issues

Thank you very much ripsaw for your efforts. The TSR works really well. I'm just amazed how much it changed the whole experience with the game. Now if I run REVENGE.EXE I can now actually see the RPDINTRO , and even the episode selector has music too. Everything works just as expected, and now I …

Re: Installing TIE Fighter Through DOSBox

This one should be easy. Just use the the \ instead of using / in your commands and you have to type D:\ too for accessing the CD-ROM drive you mounted. I guess you forgot that. If the Tie Fighter disk has audio tracks you won't be able to hear it in DOSBox. If you have the original retail disk …
